SECRET VOICES OF THE WILD: AI Unlocks Animal Language🦁🐘 - Fun Kids Science Weekly
Description
Get ready for another adventure through space, nature, and the strangest corners of science on the BIGGER and BETTER Science Weekly!
This week, we’re answering YOUR questions, have scientists battle it out to decide which science is the best, and uncovering why plastic is such a big problem for our planet- plus what we can all do to help.
In Science in the News, scientists in China have made a jaw-dropping discovery: a human skull thought to be 1 million years old! Then we take to the skies as the falcon is crowned New Zealand’s Bird of the Year. And finally, Dan is joined by Mélissa Berthet to explore how AI could help us decode the mysterious language of animals.
We’ll also be diving into your questions: Avi wants to know why the time is different in other countries, and Stephen Clark from recycling charity Loop explains the hidden dangers of plastic.
Dangerous Dan is back and this week, we're taking a look at the Blunt-Toothed Giant Hutia, a creature as strange as its name.
And in Battle of the Sciences, Mathew Sparks makes the case for entomology, revealing the amazing ant that actually uses its head as a door!
